Origin A video shared to Reddit in early May 2021 appeared to show a piece of what you might call real-life kryptonite a brightly glowing, green-hued hyalite opal that the original poster of the video claimed got its vibrancy from uranium. At the time of this writing, the video had been upvoted more than 66,000 times  Snopes readers asked our team to verify whether it was true that hyalite opal glowed bright green under ultraviolet (UV) light, and we determined this to be true.
